Select the correct answer. Wanda is a cake designer with a specialty in rectangular silk screen photo cakes. For every cake that she makes, the width of the cake is 4 inches
more than the width of the photo in the center of the cake, and the length of every cake is two times its width. The area of the cake Wanda is
currently working on is at least 254 square inches,
If x represents the width of the photo, which inequality represents this situation?

A. 2·x² + 16·x + 32 ≥ 254

Step-by-step explanation:

The given dimensional relationship between the dimensions of the photo in the center of the cake and the dimensions of the cake are

The width of the cake = The width of the photo at the center of the cake, x + 4 inches

The length of the cake = 2 × The width of the cake

The area of the cake Wanda is working on ≥ 254 in.²

Where 'x' represents the width of the photo (at the center of the cake), let 'W' represent the width of the cake, let 'L' represent the length of the cake, we get;

W = x + 4

L = 2 × W

Area of the cake, A = W × L ≥ 254

∴ A = (x + 4) × 2 × (x + 4) = 2·x² + 16·x + 32 ≥ 254

The inequality representing the solution is therefore;

2·x² + 16·x + 32 ≥ 254
